Ye Mingchen's eyes instantly became clear, his pure black eyes could not see the emotions.

Suddenly, he frowned in disbelief. "What did you say?"

Bai Youyou's breathing grew deeper. Under the dim light, he asked Ye Mingchen again, "Did you fall in love with me?"

The higher the probability, the more likely he would reject her answer, but Bai Youyou knew that she needed his answer. She needed to know that at least Ye Mingchen did not treat her so strangely because he suddenly fell in love with her.

This way, she wouldn't think too much about it. The little bit of hope in her heart wouldn't be overflowing.

Time stood still.

Every second was hard to endure, so Bai Youyou saw Ye Mingchen's thin lips opening and closing slowly.

"Are you dreaming?"

The tone of disdain, the tone of disgust, how familiar.

Bai Youyou's eyelashes fluttered, her lips moved upwards, concealing the bitterness in her eyes: "I'm dreaming."

She walked slowly out of the party hall. It was late, and most of the tourists went back to their hotels.

Bai Youyou walked along the bamboo and wooden street alone, passing by a modern clear bar, where a melodious female voice came out, sounding slow and sad.

There was no one in the bar, only a woman in a short black skirt singing alone.

Bai Youyou walked in and sat in front of the lady, and listened to her sing.

"Take what you want ~ To empty the memories ~"

This was probably a lovelorn song, she could barely understand the lyrics. The woman's eyes were closed as she was immersed in singing, Bai Youyou had heard a few songs.

Her phone vibrated a few times. Bai Mo sent her a few messages asking where she was.

After reporting that she was safe, Bai Youyou carefully walked out.

He originally thought that he could calmly accept Ye Mingchen's harsh words, but now, he felt as if he was pressed down by a huge boulder to the point that he couldn't breathe.

She didn't know how she got back to the hotel or how she fell asleep, but when the morning sun hit her room and fresh air entered her lungs, there was nothing she couldn't accept.

After the group was finished, the group returned to their work and got back onto the right track.

Bai Youyou stayed at the company and received a lot of notifications. He liked to act and she did not want to refuse, and Bai Youyou also did not want to use the company's matters to pressure him to do what she liked.

Ning Shu had raised the lilies in the office very well, and there were even droplets of water on the petals that had just been watered.

After looking through a few documents, Ning Shu finally returned to the company.

Bai Youyou laughed lightly: "How is it, did you get the antique you wanted?"

Ning Shu originally saw the corner of Bai Youyou's mouth sink. From the looks of it, she did not manage to snatch it from her.

"It's fine. Next time, if there's anything you want, I'll go with you. I'll definitely get it."

Bai Youyou took out the jade pendant she had prepared for Ning Shu a long time ago. Holding the jade pendant in her hand, she sat down on the office chair, discouraged.

"Wandering, I might have met a natural enemy."

"Hmm? "What's wrong?"

Ning Shu let out a rare long sigh, a cold glint flashed past her eyes as she gritted her teeth and said, "Dong Ming, the one who asked for a beating, is actually Dong Ji Gu's successor!"

"Hmm …" Bai Youyou knew about this, but she didn't know much about it.

Bai Youyou thought about it a few times and finally came up with an answer. Ning Shu liked antiques, and Dong Ji's antique shop was the largest in the entire country, so Dong Ming was Dong Ji's only successor.

With the relationship drawn in her mind, Bai Youyou frowned. She still did not understand why Dong Ming was so angry when she was the heir to Dong Ji's antiques.

She puzzledly asked Ning Shu: "What happened between you and him?"

Just as Ning Shu was about to answer, her phone rang.
